Derawar
Fort is an ancient fort located in Cholistan Desert in Pakistan. The Fort was
built by Deoraj, a prince of Jaisalmer. It was in possession of royal family of
Jaisalmer when it was captured by Abbasis in 1735. In 1747, the Fort slipped
from the hands of Abbasis in the reign of Nawab Bahawal Khan due to his
pre-occupations at Shikarpur. Nawab Mubarak Khan took the stronghold back in
1804.
